We really need to get started with NFEs. I recommend placing all non-distinct Pokemon (so not Vigoroth, Pikachu, etc., those are actual Pokemon) on the BL tier by default. This means we don't have to have Kadabra and stuff on the tiers at all, just say that all Pokemon not mentioned are considered BL. Then we look at the really weak NFEs. Put those into NU. To simplify things, we could just say that all NU NFEs are also NU. Then you don't have to include stuff like Ratata and Pidgey. NU could then include Pokemon like Diglett and the like.

Or, if this is not seen as a good move, then just say "All other Pokemon are considered BL", so these Pokemon at least have a tier.
